ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of interventional combine with surgical therapy of symptomatic portal vein thrombosis (PVT). Methods Seven patients with PVT were treated by surgical thrombectomy, regional medical thrombolysis, and angioplasty or stenting. Resection of part of the small intestine was performed in 2 cases due to enteric necrosis and in 1 case because of enteric stenosis. Results The procedure was successful in all the 7 patients. The preoperative symptoms (abdominal pain, distention, and ascites) were alleviated apparently. Follow-up observations for 3~24 months (mean, 16 months) showed no death. No alimentary tract hemorrhage occurred. Re-examinations with Doppler ultrasonography revealed patent blood flow in the portal vein. Conclusions Interventional combined with surgical therapy is safe and effective in the treatment of symptomatic portal venous thrombosis.
